Preferred term

communication and language acquisition and development  

Definition(s)

  • Relationships among communication, language acquisition, and development are deeply involved in what makes us human. While speech scientists and psycholinguists have examined language acquisition, and cognitive psychologists have tied language to developmental issues, most communication scholars have shied away from the question, What exactly does communication have to do with language acquisition and development? Definitions of Terms and Links among Them One of the first scholars of communication to consider the links among communication, language, and development was Frank Dance.
